I'm trying to connect to my companies vpn with open connect. I'm running Debian linux. I'm having trouble, obviously ;) So, normally my company has users install the cisco vpn client via an applet that automagically sets everything up for you. This applet hangs indefinitely in my browsers. I can't quite sort out yet what the problem is. However, I found openconnect in the debian repos and went with it. Wonderful integration with the network manager; impressive improvement over recent years. However, when I actually try to connect to the vpn, it complains about a lack of Cisco Secure Desktop. I need troubleshooting advice. Here's the actual error. See below for MORE INFO.

It then asks for credentials, accepts them ( why didn't it ask for credentials the first time? ), and then it craps out, reporting this error message: "Unable to complete connection: Cisco Secure Desktop not installed on the client."
